Due to various devices I would like to use in my RV, I have determined that there is a need to develop a dedicated 5v buss in the electrical system. I have seen numerous schematics for individual 5v regulators, but none have the capacity I would like to see. I would really appreciate it if the gurus on the list (especially you, Bob!) would point me to a schematic for a 12volt input, 10A, 5V output regulator/power supply. Thanks in advance!

	You might want to explore this one.  It seems to exceed your specs,

and is a sealed weather tight unit.  It will, perhaps, cost no more 	than

a DIY supply.

If by chance you are using a GRT EIS, it provides a 5v source.

	This is true, but I do not believe that it is rated for a 10A

output.

   There are hundreds of ingredients that might be applicable

   to the sought after recipe for success. It would be helpful

   to know more details.



   Is this 10A figure based on a load analysis of anticipated

   loads or just a CYAWAG? 10A is a LOT of 5v snort.  How

   many outlets and/or bus distribution taps are anticipated?

   I presume some of these loads are hard mounted devices and

   would be best powered from a distribution bus . . . while

   others will be loose hardware powered from connectors

   (USB sockets?). Are ANY of these devices anticipated to be

   extra useful for comfortable termination of flight? In

   other words, are there any devices that should powered though

   conduits that enjoy maximum isolation from propagation of

   failures experienced in other systems?

I guess I missed the 10A requirement

Nothing shows up in Amazon with your link.

Just a thougt...
	


I am just planning of having a "co-pilot area" on the right side with 

all the

gadgets that has to be powered and charged while flying and camping.

Why not put two or three separate 5 volt thingies in there for redundancy?

Instead of one, hot, beefy thing.

I think 10A might be more than you really need, but regardless, I always point people towards Astrodyne.



See: http://www.astrodyne.com/Product/sd50.asp



Their supplies are affordable, reliable and easy to get. Get the chassis kind, not the potted super-dense kind.
